If you love Poldark, you’ll love Jane Feather’s dazzling Georgian romantic trilogy, the Blackwater Brides, which begins with Rushed To The Altar.

Perfect for fans of Eloisa James, Liz Carlyle and Stephanie Laurens.

Jasper Sullivan, Earl of Blackwater, needs a prostitute. Not in the usual way, however. His wealthy uncle’s will promises to divide his huge fortune among his nephews if each rescues a fallen woman…by marrying her. And since Jasper’s estates were already mortgaged to the hilt before he inherited them, when he catches a pretty young prostitute trying to pick his pocket, he immediately makes his proposal.

Clarissa Astley is not at all what Jasper believes. The orphaned daughter of a prosperous merchant, she is searching the seedier districts of London for her young brother, abducted by their evil guardian, who wants the little boy’s inheritance. But she needs powerful help, and the darkly handsome Earl of Blackwater is certainly that. So she pretends to be exactly what he assumed – a risky charade for an innocent virgin. But when passion flares between Jasper and Clarissa, the deception becomes even more difficult to handle…

Follow the captivating tales of the brothers as they each find their most unusual brides in A Wedding Wager and An Unsuitable Bride.
